Loving God and loving our neighbor is the easy part (believe it or not). The real work comes when we try to apply Jesus' words, "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you!" Find out how to get this done!

We love to focus on comforting soundbites from Jesus. We love the comforting sayings of Jesus (I will never leave you; all things work for good). But we rarely create “pocket promise” memes & T-Shirts from of the hard sayings of Jesus… Ones that confront us or call for radical commitment. So for the next few weeks we will deal with several of those sayings, starting with today's sermon on Jesus' words about the dark desire called LUST!

Most people believe that heaven is our “default destination”, and you have to do something really horrible to end up in “the other place.” The grand assumption by the overwhelming majority of Americans is that most everyone is on the road to eternal life.

Our final destination is not heaven as we understand it now, but rather, it’s what the Bible describes as the New Heaven on a newly rebuilt earth that will be similar-but-different than what we know now. It will be an eternal home that is more impressive, and more dynamic (both in size and beauty). Take a tour of your new home in this sermon!

The world in which we live requires discernment. Even though faith guides us through the complexities of life, we often feel unsettled. In the conclusion of this series, the dark prophet shows us the way forward in times of uncertainty.

In this message, pastor Reuben introduces us to an Israelite clan named, the Rechabites. From them, we learn what obedience truly looks like, and why, "I can't, Lord" is often times our way of saying, "I won't, God!"

We all came into the Christian life with certain assumptions. Some of us came in knowing there would be seasons of discouragement in our spiritual journey and some rough terrain, but we assumed life would eventually “level off” as we matured in our faith. In this sermon, pastor Segun asks and answers the question, “What happens when it doesn’t level off?” What happens when you go through those Dark Nights of the Soul that turn into weeks, months, and years where you silently wonder, “God, what did I do to you?”
